A staff photographer snapped this colourful (who said gaudy?) ensemble at the Brighton Metropole Hotel during the 1991 PolyGram Autumn Conference. It perfectly captures the sheer delight on mega-successful singer and songwriter, Cathy Dennis\u2019s face after she was corralled by a \u201crefreshed\u201d album sales team (that\u2019s me, 2nd right).<\/p>\n
Did she want to touch us all night long? I\u2019d like to keep my professional integrity intact, so I\u2019m not going to say. But, with the stunning choices on offer, it must have stretched her willpower right to the very limit…<\/p>\n
The tales I could tell of this spectacular evening would fill a book. But it might also result in lawsuits. Printable highlights though include me: having an entire conversation with Bob Geldof in a ridiculous Irish accent; falling over a sales rep who was fighting in a hotel corridor with members of Wet Wet Wet; asking scary, hairy, heavy rocker Glenn Danzig if he might \u201cfancy a wrestle later\u201d before running off clucking like a crazy chicken.<\/p>\n
At 3am I went for a walk on the beach, hoping to recreate scenes from Quadrophenia. In a Hawaiian shirt and eating a bowl of profiteroles. Jimmy would have been so proud!<\/p>\n
